1.0 MEANING OF SIGNAL WORDS

A safety related message is identified by a safety alert symbol and a signal word to indicate the level of risk involved

with a particular hazard. Per ANSI standard Z535.4-1998 the definitions of the three signal words are as follows:

DANGER

CAUTION

WARNING

DANGER indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,

may result in minor or moderate injury.
